Enjoy your amateur hour

You, like me, are a discerning person with an eye for graphic design.

Art expression in print form it is not your career, but you like to dab into it, pretend you can do amazing drawings like the ones in the tutorials. And this is why you'll buy the rusty nib and all the other True Grit add-ons. Because imitation and copy are a form of artistic expression and you God konws we need more of that in our lives.

Don't feel gilty and get yourselves a True Grit set of brushes and textures and whatever, have fun and draw something, "Waste" some time in a new logo or tracing a picture and making something with it. It is good fun after all.

I still suck at it, but I don't care. I still have fin with it, it is all that matters to me.

HUGE range to play with!

An amazing amount of line choice to play with and really hone down exactly how I want my line work to look like.

I usually go for a really clean slick line - but some of the rough, bleed quality nibs are really inspiring me to create some different styles just so I can use the pens! Lol
